fragment-identifier

I'm using the fragment identifier to create a permalink for AJAX events in my web app similar to this guy. Something like:

http://www.myapp.com/calendar#filter:year/2010/month/5

I've done quite a bit of searching but can't find a list of valid characters for the fragment idenitifer. The W3C spec doesn't offer anything.

Do I need to encode the characters the same as the URL in has in general?

There doesn't seem to be any good information on this anywhere.
